Hey all

So I know there's tons of services that you send your watch in, and get them gold plated. There's also some differences between some of the ones wildly suggested.

Some will polish away your scratches first, others do 6 microns of plating, the other one supposedly gives you 30+ microns. Very huge range.

My main thing was having to send it in, IF I do this service. I live in NJ, 20 minute ride from Manhattan. Does anyone know if there's a shop that advertises similar services? I would also assume I could see the gold color they use in person, so I can see what the finished product would look like, without having to send stuff in for $400 and hope for the best.
